Saw this in the newspaper. A woman lost her pet skunk and was using her neighbours pet skunk to try and find her own skunk. I didn't know people kept skunks as pets. This was in the UK so they aren't even native to our country.
Simone Biles performing an amazing Yurchenko double-piked on vault, during qualifications at World Gymnastics Championships in Antwerp.
After Tokyo Olympics, I was hoping for her to return and perform this incredibly difficult vault in competition (she's the only female gymnast to compete it). The vault is now officially called "The Biles II" and has a score of 6.4 (one of the highest in the code of points).

An online article about the US emergency broadcast system test being a means in which the government would activate material in the bodies of citizens that had taken "the vaccine" causing people to turn into zombies.

I read the amazing book The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue. It was beautiful and her personality closely matches mine. I've never found an adult character that truly reminded me of my whole self.
